About Me

I'm a recruiter specializing in placing construction professionals in the New York area. I’ve earned my reputation as a trusted recruitment partner, by developing transparent relationships and representing high quality professionals in permanent and interim positions across the built environment and beyond.

Cobalt unlocks the true potential of recruitment by delivering a top-notch recruiting experience, from initial sourcing and screening through offer negotiations, placements, and onboarding because we understand the importance of finding the perfect match.

Getting positive feedback from a client who’s hired my candidate(s) and loves the impact that they’ve had on their business. Finding the perfect fit is extremely rewarding and I love playing a part in driving the process forward.

In my free time I stay active and play music. I’m big into soccer - they call me Messi on the pitch – and I’ll go skateboarding or play basketball casually. I’m always up for some friendly competition, loser pays for brews.
